## Description
HTML documents can be beautiful and pristine. They can also be wretched,
evil, malformed demon-spawn. Now, you can tidy up that HTML and XHTML
before processing it with your favorite angle-bracket crunching tools,
going beyond the limited tidying that ‘libxml2’ affords in the ‘XML’ and
‘xml2’ packages and taming even the ugliest HTML code generated by the
likes of Google Docs and Microsoft Word. It’s also possible to use the
functions provided to format or “pretty print” HTML content as it is
being tidied. Utilities are also included that make it possible to view
formatted and “pretty printed” HTML/XML content from HTML/XML document
objects, nodes, node sets and plain character HTML/XML using
‘vkbeautify’ (by Vadim Kiryukhin) and ‘highlight.js’ (by Ivan
Sagalaev). Also (optionally) enables filtering of nodes via XPath or
viewing an HTML/XML document in “tree” view using ‘XMLDisplay’ (by Lev
Muchnik). See < https: / / github . com / vkiryukhin / vkBeautify > and
< http: / / www . levmuchnik . net / Content / ProgrammingTips / WEB / XMLDisplay / DisplayXMLFileWithJavascript . html >
for more information about ‘vkbeautify’ and ‘XMLDisplay’, respectively.
